The main goal of this article is to consider the extent of the socio and environmental crisis that we confront today and the need to boost and follow sustainable development as an alternative model to diminish its devastating effects, through the contribution of higher education institutions. To accomplish this, in this paper we analyze the role that institutions have in the pursuit of sustainable development objectives; as to emphasize some key ideas and improve the understanding of sustainable development. Finally, to move forward on this subject, we conclude with a set of recommendations, with the intention to be used by institutions.
